Whitman College

Whitman College offers a spectacular Pacific Northwest location, ready access to outdoor opportunities, a world-class faculty of dedicated teacher-scholars, more than 100 student organizations, and 30 varsity, club, and intramural sports teamsâplus 300 days of sunshine each year on our state-of-the-art campus in Walla Walla, Washington!
Weâre committed to providing students with outstanding academic programs combined with unparalleled opportunities for fun-filled adventure. Eighty percent of Whitman students participate in an organized sport at some level, and the Outdoor Program offerings are among the countryâs most extensive. Our students live and work on a residential campus that doubles as both an arboretum (the student-to-tree ratio on campus is 1:3) and an outdoor art museum.
The Whitman experience is defined by creativity, hard work, and an environment that encourages students to follow their individual passions. Because they are able to have a direct impact on campus (through the creation of new clubs, traditions, and more), Whitman graduates enter the world prepared to make a difference. Over the past 10 years, our students have won 17 Watsons, 25 National Science Foundation fellowships, and 75 Fulbrights.
